Three ways to get it notarised
In person with our in-house notary public
Come in and sign at the notary's desk. We prepare and check the document first, so the signing itself is short. The notary public checks each signer's original ID, reads the document, watches you sign and applies the seal.
Home or hospital visit
Our private notary comes to your home, hospital bed, office or hotel. This suits elderly relatives, new parents and patients. A Dubai private notary charges a government trip fee of AED 1,000 per trip outside the place of work. See notary at home in Dubai and hospital notary service in Dubai.
Online notary public
Federal law allows a notary to use IT tools in place of personal appearance (Federal Decree-Law No. 20 of 2022, Article 18). Remote notarisation runs through the official UAE channels. Our guide to the Dubai Courts e-notary explains when it suits your document.
Side by side
Personal documents we prepare and get signed
| Document | Who signs | Usually asked for by | Full guide |
|---|---|---|---|
| Child travel consent letter | The parent or parents not travelling | Airlines, immigration, school trip organisers | child travel consent letter |
| NOC letter for a visa | Employer, sponsor, spouse or parent | Visa offices, embassies, new employers | no objection letter for visa |
| NOC for a child visa | The parent who is not sponsoring | Visa and residency offices | NOC for child visa sample |
| Affidavit of support | The resident sponsoring a relative | Visa offices and some embassies | affidavit of support guide |
| Declaration of residency | The person stating their address | Banks, schools, embassies | declaration of residency sample |
| Personal declaration or undertaking | The person making the statement | Employers, embassies, universities | declaration letter templates |
| Special power of attorney | The person giving the authority | Banks, RTA, landlords, schools | special power of attorney form |
If your document is not in the list, send us a photo of the request letter. Its wording usually tells us which document the office wants. For a form that only needs a signature confirmed, see witnessing of signatures.
What every signing needs
The notary will not seal a document unless these are in place (Federal Decree-Law No. 20 of 2022, Articles 5, 7 and 8).
- The signer, in person or in a remote session the notary has agreed to.
- An original ID: Emirates ID, passport or another official UAE document.
- Capacity and consent. The signer understands the document and agrees freely.
- A final text, agreed before the signing. Handwritten changes on the day often mean a reprint.
- An Arabic version, or an interpreter, when the notary or receiving office needs one. We translate it with a legal translator. See translation and notary services.
- Supporting papers named in the document.
Step by step
How it works
Send the request
Tell us what the bank, school, embassy or visa office asked for.
We draft and check
We use the names exactly as printed in each passport and send you a copy to check line by line.
You sign
In person, at home, in hospital or online, with the notary public.
Attestation, if needed
If the document goes abroad, we take care of the MOFAIC attestation. The UAE is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so an apostille is not available for a UAE document.
Affidavit or signature authentication
Signature authentication confirms that the person signed. The federal fee is AED 200 per party (Cabinet Resolution No. 19 of 2024, item 8). A consent letter or an NOC is often signed this way.
An affidavit is a sworn statement made under oath. The federal fee is AED 300 (item 12). An affidavit of support is drafted this way.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Which documents count as personal documents?
Documents a private person signs about their own family, home, money or travel: consent letters, NOCs, affidavits, declarations and personal powers of attorney. Company documents are signed for a business and follow a different process.
What ID does the notary accept?
The notary checks identity from an Emirates ID, a passport or another official UAE document (Federal Decree-Law No. 20 of 2022, Article 7). Bring the original.
Is a document signed at home as valid as one signed at the notary's office?
Yes. The notarial act is the same wherever it takes place. The notary makes the same identity, capacity and consent checks at your home as at the office.
Do you handle attestation after notarisation?
Yes, for personal documents going abroad. We take care of the MOFAIC attestation and explain any embassy step that applies.
